<p><strong>In January of 2012 my brother bought a pair of V3I's for me and himself.</strong> This started us on an 11 month detecting adventure. The first month we learned the basics of the machine with the help of White’s forum and its great ambassadors.</p> <p>The next 10 were spent hunting "hunted out" parks, baseball fields, football fields, school yards, and a few places that we had researched and gained permission. After a 20 year hiatus from metal detecting I couldn't believe there were coins still in the ground, and the results from this year amaze me.</p>
